In 1966 the U.S. Department of Labor established The Federal Bonding Program to provide Fidelity Bonds that guarantee honesty for “at-risk”, hard-to-place job seekers. The bonds cover the first six months of employment. There is no cost to the job applicant or the employer. In most states the bonds are made available through the state agency responsible for workforce matters.

“AHCCCS has received a few inquiries related to incorrect information in the community. To clarify: HEA IS accepting childless adult (and expansion group) applications. These applications WILL transfer to HEAplus after the system goes live. You will NOT have to reapply for childless adults or expansion groups. Childless adults are NOT getting denied today for coverage in January. They may receive a notice letting them know they are not eligible for coverage from October through December, but the notice also lets them know we will process their application under the new rules for coverage that would start in January.”

Addictive behavior functions to repair this underlying feeling of helplessness.

This reversal of helplessness may be described as the psychological purpose of addiction.”
